Dad’s video showing a ‘ghost’ on a playground is going is viral

When kids get scared and start talking about ghosts hiding in the wardrobes or under the bed, the usual line is, “Honey, ghosts don’t exist,” and you have a look in the area they are apparently hiding in.

But when dad Scott Denton took his kids to the playground and noticed that a swing seemed to be moving entirely of its own accord, he didn’t investigate. He stayed put with his children and locked the car. Now you might be thinking that it all sounds a bit silly and false but we don’t think we’d be in any rush to go out if we saw what they did. A video which Scott uploaded to Facebook shows just one of the swings moving quite a lot. The other swings aren’t moving at all and there appears to be nobody in close proximity to the park. In the clip, which has received six million views, he explains: “We’re in the playground and the kids don’t want to go anymore because look at this sh*t. This is real, look at this. There’s nobody on it, there’s no wind.” Believe what you will but like we said, we’d probably have locked the car as well and then driven straight home.
